Billie Joe Armstrong

LP

No Fun Mondays

LIMITED EDITION

BABY BLUE VINYL

Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong is set to

release his covers series No Fun Mondays into a 14-

song collection on November 27 via Reprise/Warner

Records, No Fun Mondays sees Armstrong putting

his signature melodic-punk spin on the songs that

have formed the soundtrack to his life, including

classics by John Lennon, Billy Bragg, and Johnny

Thunders.

 The No Fun Mondays series launched in March on

Green Day’s YouTube channel. Like many

musicians, Armstrong expected to spend much of

this year on the road, touring in support of Green

Day’s chart-topping February album, Father of All…

However, once the pandemic forced him to put

those plans on pause, Armstrong got busy with a

different kind of work. "While we’ve all been in

quarantine I’ve been reflecting on the things that

matter the most in my life: family, friends, and, of

course, music,” he says. “I figure if we have to

spend this time in isolation at least we can be alone

together."

Kicking things off with his perfectly on-trend cover

of Tommy James and the Shondells’ golden oldie, “I

Think We’re Alone Now,” Armstrong treated fans to

a new home-recorded cover song each Monday,

accompanied by a DIY video. Beyond paying

respects to his punk-rock forefathers (The

Avengers’ “Corpus Christi,” Dead Boy Stiv Bators’

“Not That Way Anymore”) and working-class heroes

(John Lennon’s “Gimme Some Truth,” Billy Bragg’s

“A New England”), Armstrong also indulged his love

of sugary pop through reverent versions of The

Bangles’ “Manic Monday” and the Beatlesque theme

to Tom Hanks’ 1995 film That Thing You Do! The

latter was performed in tribute to the song’s writer,

Adam Schlesinger, who passed away in April.
